A Dynamic Duo from London Bringing a Fresh and Authentic Blend of Musical Elements
Stellar Knights, a formidable force in the realms of Alternative Rock and Gothic music, are here to mesmerize your senses. This dynamic duo, comprised of Stella D’Angelo on vocals and Duncan Greenway on guitars, bass, and synth, hails from London, England. Their newest single, “Stop The Rain,” is a testament to their unique ability to blend genres and evoke powerful emotions through their music.
From their humble beginnings during the lockdowns, Stella and Duncan first connected as friends in London. Their relationship evolved into a romantic one, and then into a creative partnership, giving rise to Stellar Knights. Stella, originally from Italy, brings a wealth of experience from her time in cover bands and various collaborations.
Duncan, a South African musician, transitioned from playing in heavy southern rock bands in Kent to creating the atmospheric, emotionally charged sound that characterizes Stellar Knights today.

As a curator for PopHits.Co, I must praise the quality of Stellar Knights’ music. Their sound is a carefully crafted fusion of alternative rock, metal, gothic, and progressive elements.
It’s reminiscent of the emotional intensity found in the works of artists such as Evanescence and HIM, yet they maintain a distinctive style that is all their own. Their single, “Stop The Rain,” dives into the darker, symphonic territory and explores the turmoil of forbidden love with haunting melodies and powerful lyrics.
“We’re currently hard at work on our upcoming EP, which we hope to release in time for Christmas,” Stella shared. Indeed, the excitement and dedication shining through their music is palpable. Visuals are also an integral part of their process, as seen in the captivating videos paired with tracks like “Away From Here” and “Stop The Rain.” Their collaborations with other talented musicians add an extra layer of richness to their compositions, promising even more compelling content in future releases.
Each song from Stellar Knights tells a unique story, drawing from personal experiences, literature, and reality. “Pisces” channels a grungy, introspective vibe, tapping into themes of mental health and introspection inspired by legends like Kurt Cobain and Chris Cornell. “Away From Here” serves as an empowering anthem of change and self-discovery, encouraging listeners to embrace new horizons. Meanwhile, “Stop The Rain” plunges into dark, gothic romances, echoing the profound emotional depth of their sonic landscape.
“We handle all the production ourselves in our small home studio,” Duncan explained. This DIY approach allows them to maintain creative control and authenticity in their music. For “Stop The Rain,” they enlisted the help of Moyano el Buffalo (King Lizard, Tim Ripper Owen) on drums and entrusted mixing duties to Damiano Seresini. The result is a polished, atmospheric track that resonates deeply with listeners.
